My scent-sister!! Thank you for collaborating with me! This idea was genius! I MUST check out all the scents you love that I don’t already have! I know I’ll love them bc you do! Oh the perks of having another nose to smell for me 🤣 Happy Mishmas! Smooches 💋
Love you both! Can’t wait to see your video Kelsey! And I’m a Frag- head so this is a topic close to my heart! ❤️. Thank you to you both you for collaborating on this topic. Bring on more fragrance videos and collabs!
I tried Portrait of a Lady after one of your previous videos....I fell in love with it. Whenever I wear it, I get stopped by men and women asking what I'm wearing. I put it on recently around 7 a.m. - went to the pharmacy at 3:30 pm and got stopped twice. I was so surprised that anyone could smell it after 8+ hours. And I only spritz myself in the morning. I'm finding that anything with Patchouli I gravitate towards. I'm going to try your Chanel Deauville recommendation. Thank you!!
I have synesthesia and I love the colorful way you describe scents. I struggle sometimes to help someone understand what I mean by a "yellow" or "blue" scent and you would understand me immediately. This is such a fun video!
I find this really interesting as well! This is the first I’ve seen anyone review perfume in colors. As an artist, although I’m not a synesthete, I perceive colors in temperature. So awesome ❤️
Is synesthesia personal and subjective? Like something blue to you might be purple to someone else? Is it like, of what is perceived by various senses and associating that with the moods or feelings certain colors provide you with?
Thank you very much for doing 25 days of mishmas! I just realized you are my advent calendar, I watches your videos daily and really enjoying leaning new products from you. I love your light pink cheek & lip colors, it goes very well with your grey color sweater. Have a wonderful day and see you tomorrow 🥰
Portrait of a Lady is pure artistry! The woman wearing is mysterious, intellectual and powerful. You wanna talk to her but your a little afraid. She knows things you don’t know and she’s traveled places you didn’t even know existed and you can’t stop staring at her. ❤️
I am OBSESSED with Tom Ford Tobacco & Vanille and I've never smoked a cigarette in my life (your story cracked me up😆). When I was little, my grandpa smoked a pipe for awhile and he would use this cherry tobacco. He always left the pouch on the kitchen counter and I would open and inhale it. I loved the smell so much and now when I wear this perfume I think of him. It's such a gorgeous and intoxicating fragrance. I would encourage anyone to try it! There's nothing like it out there that I have found. Happy Mishmas, Michele -- thank you for all your hard work!! Your videos are so soothing to watch every day and I'm going to be sad when it's over.😍🎄
I got a sample of Tom Ford Tobacco Vanilla and thought I wouldn’t like it but tried it. My husband thinks it is the best. He loves it on me. So much surprise about this. I always wear light scents and mostly floral.
Michele…I totally appreciate all your hard work and dedication. Putting yourself as a brand is a lot. You deserve all the successes that comes. I’ve followed you for your integrity and honesty, keep up the great work ❤️
Your descriptions make me want to try all of them. And your looks when you talked about the 3rd date were so hilarious! My faves right now are the Baccarat Rouge 540 and Tom Ford Rose Prick. Have a great day and I look forward to another video!
I sought out Hypnotizing Fire because of a review of yours, and I recently bought it! I love it, it's deep, woody, spicy and smokey which is exactly the type of fragrance I love.
Gateau is cake in french, so it's Black Forest Cake.😊 I can imagine how exhausting it is to do a video Everyday, come up with ideas, film it, edit them, and get them put out. It's a lot! And just know we really appreciate it! You've been doing a fantastic job!❤❤
Great explanations of the scents. Love the color associations. The Jo Malone is wonderful, and Tobacco Vanille is so good! That Chanel range is so nice as well. I have the Riviera and it’s what I grab when I can’t decide what to wear. 🎄😊
I think you would love the men's version of Aventus. It is honestly my favorite scent ever. I buy it for my husband but sometimes I put a little on my wrist just so I can have it with me all day!
Ooh, I like this topic. My favourites/most worn include: Creed Virgin Island Water, Kilian Angels’ Share, L’Artisan Premier Figuier, Zoologist Bee, Parfums de Marly Delina, Armani Rose Alexandrie, Replica Lipstick On (discontinued 😬), Roja 51 essence, Byredo Gypsy Water and Armani Figuier Eden.
Your description of each fragrance was perfection and your comparison to an experience of the seasons and surroundings was amazing. The fact that you could smell one fragrance after another without having to smell coffee beans was interesting.
I got the Aventus for him for my husband a couple years ago and it is both our favorite for him. SO good. It’s relatively unisex in my opinion but leans masculine. Love your list 😍
I am SO GLAD you did this because I just joined Scentbird to start trying out some of these new fragrances you've been peaking my interest with. Just added the harmonist for next month😈 my first month I got the Rag&Bone Oddity fragrance and I actually think you'd like it. It's SO different from anything I've smelled as a fragrance and it's unisex. The notes are black pepper, licorice, leather, vetiver and vanilla bean. HEAVY on the black pepper and definitely get a licorice scent which isn't my favorite but it grew on me. Definitely a one and done kind of fragrance.
Sitting here with coffee (yes it is 8 pm here, but I was craving coffee and watching you! It's a good night. I was also on your site looking at your earrings cause my mom had asked me what I wanted for a graduation present and I showed her the black diamond huggie earrings with the rose gold, so hopefully part of my graduation present will be those, cause I LOVE THEM!
1st time discovering your channel.👏👏👏👏channel. WOW! The way you describe each fragrance, is spectacular. I must say, you describing the note of like smelling a fresh pack of cigarettes.."Ding ding, ding" IMMEDIATELY brought back a scent memory from like I was 4, maybe 5 years old! I haven't thought of that in over 50yrs!! Thank you.. I also think your French is BEYOND adorable 🤌 💓.. Love the Advent Mishmash Calendars!! Best, Michellexx
One of my first subscriptions I loved here on UA-cam was the channel: Katie Puckrik Smells. I think she still has some content up even though it's over a decade old. She is very interesting, funny and in depth. I find fragrance to be such a story about the individual. It's also quite personal and dear. My favorites have mostly been discontinued. I love meeting people who enjoy scent as much as I do, and imagine my collection would be endless if I ever caught a windfall. 🥰 Thanks for sharing Michele. Your descriptions made me long for smellavision. ~Merry Mishmas~ 🎄☃️🏡🎅🤶🦌🌎
Oh, I love Katie’s descriptions too, I wish she still made content. I bought two fragrances right off the back of her reviews, and I love them dearly- TF Neroli Portofino & Bvlgari Omnia. I don’t even remember if she liked them or not, but her reviews alone made me try them in the first instance 😄. * Ok, I just went back to Katie’s channel to check, and her influence must have extended further than I first recalled… Chanel Sycamore, Belle d’Opium, Infusion d’Iris and more… 🤣
Ah Michele, I'm a long-time fragrance enthusiast and I have to tell you, it's been so fun watching you get into fragrance and sharing your experiences with us! I love your fragrance videos! I had to think really hard .... but right now, I think these would be my top shelf: Kilian Amber Oud (sadly discontinued), Guerlain Santal Royal, YSL Cuir, Eris Mx, Memo Quartier Latin, Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan, Tauer Perfumes Phi: Une Rose de Khandehar, L'Occitane Labdanum (also sadly discontinued), Hermes Osmanthe Yunnan, and Fort & Manle Mr. Bojnokopff's Purple Hat. My hubs and I share TF Tobacco Vanille and Kilian Black Phantom (and Fort & Manle Forty Thieves and Arquiste Nanban, which we layered for our elopement). Based on your list, I think you would like Tauer Phi! It is really well blended with a lot going on, but it has blond tobacco and rose in the mix. I also think you might like like trying Santal Royal (rose oud) and YSL Cuir (suede). I haven't liked much from Harmonist that I've tried but I'm going to find a sample of Hypnotizing Fire because it sounds amazing, and maybe I'll give PoaL a go again. Happy Mishmas! 😁
This was so much fun! I took a break from fragrance for years but I’ve taken a deep dive the past year back into it and I’m so happy I did. I can’t wait to try some of your favorites, they all sound amazing!
I love perfume...it speaks of the soul in so many ways. I enjoy orientals, greens, floral..earthy..so many layers. I am partial at the moment to Lancome La Vie Est Belle. I have a small bottle of spiritual sky oil from 1981 ( I know...) that that was bought for me in England and it smells like fresh cut grass - the beauty of oil is that it wont spoil. I am always intrigued by your delicious bottles of perfume/cologne Michele - thank you for sharing!
I love tiare. Tiare is Tahitian for gardenia. I also like light spring scents. I feel like all the people I watch on UA-cam like perfumes I can’t stand. This was very eye-opening! I also love how you describe scents by colors. That’s how I describe a lot of ideas in general.
Stephanie Jones - Same on the Delina! I just discovered it and I gifted myself another bottle and the cream for Christmas 🎄. 2022 I’ll move on to 2nd and 3rd date 🥰.
Love this video so much. You totally sold me on the Memo Paris Sicilian Leather and the Malle Portrait of a Lady! (I already purchased the Hypnotizing Fire candle because of you!) Your channel is so dangerous, lol
Have you ever looked into smell-color synesthesia? I love hearing your descriptions of scents! What a lovely video, as always. It was a genuine treat to watch. Thank you for taking the time to share your favorites with us.
MissButters little face just melts my heart. What a sweetie. I've really gone down the fragrance rabbit hole this year. I found 2 TF fragrances I like - Lost Cherry and Tobacco Vanille. I hated, with a capital H, the Neroli Portifinos. They made me instantly ill LOL My favs at the moment are BDK Velvet Tonka, Mancera Choco Violette, Annik Goutal Nuit et Confidences, and Tom Ford Metalique. I look forward to Mishmas every day. EDIT: Forgot Killian's Angels Share
Awww.........cute Butters!!!!!!!!😍😍😍😍 And loved the video, thanks Michele, it's so calm, your vlog!!!!!!!!! Most fragrances i love are more sweet but loved your explanation, everything!!!!! Have a wonderful day!!!!😘😘😘😘
Viktor and Rolf Flowerbomb is my all time favorite right now. I get asked ALL the time what I'm wearing and my BFF bought me an engraved bottle for Christmas with a crown and it has a tutu that goes over the lid. I was shocked and so pleased! She definitely outdid me in the gift category this year!!!! Love your Mishmas! Can't wait to hear your perfumes! When I made skin care products, I was asked to recreate Jo Malone fragrances the most!
It has incredible projection. People can smell it from miles away. I always know when my sister is wearing it - I can smell it as soon as I come upstairs
I just recently found your channel and I must say I really enjoy it 🙂 I love the way you describe the fragrances and compared them to colours 👍 //Sara from Sweden
I love your color descriptions, but even more the "first date", "third date" [checking that one out!], and "one night stand" imagery. I promise to build up my "dating fragrances" wardrobe in 2022.
Girl I loooooove your scent choice. Portrait of a lady is my next purchase such a splurge. I just got the Tom Ford ombre leather for my hubby and I sneak a spritz here and there it’s wonderful
After covid and not being to smell anytjing properly for the last 5 months, it is pleasurable in itself to hear the descriptions of the scents ) i miss feeling thise scents ♡
OMG Michele...your funny bone was acting up today. You had me laughing out loud with some of your commentary. I too am expanding my perfume collection...and noted some down for reference. Super entertaining video 🤣
Hi Michele, last month I bought TF Ombre Leather but mine has a white label. I love love love that scent😍 and thank you for enduring making videos for us every day , we really appriciate💐💐💐❤️🎄🎄🎄🎄
I enjoy your take on niche frags, which is slightly different from the frags only videos, especially since you give a synaesthetic description with colors, which is quite useful. I have bacarat rouge, delina and now am eying aventus for her as a possible new summer frag.
Great Collab. Thank you for doing this. I’ve been trying to update my collection and try new fragrances. I saved both videos so when I go into Nordstrom’s or Sephora I can test them. Thanks again
I love ❤️ the way you describe fragrance as colors. I randomly received a sample of Tom Ford’s Tobacco Vanille. Oh my gosh, fell head over heels for it immediately. I’m starting to realize that I’m drawn to scents, perfumes and candles, that have the tobacco note. I also enjoy the warmth that honey can bring to a scent and want to explore that more.
I grew up in the Black Forest region. The Black Forest Cherry Cake is a local specialty - loved and eaten all over Germany, most often accompanied by a cup of coffee 😊 One of my favorite scents is Black Orchid by Tom Ford. His fragrances are so complex, he's a genius.
I am loving Mishmas! This is my first year and have enjoyed all of the videos/content. i am also really liking your very neutral, natural makeup look in this video. The lipstick/gloss is perfect!
So happy you did this! JM Wood Sage and Sea Salt, Red Roses, Tonka and Myrrh, Mollinard Vanille, and TF Tobacco Vanille are amongst my all time favorite fragrances. I’ve been curious of more bright citrus scents so this definitely has given me some ideas! 💚
I saw the Diptyque advent calendar and thought of you. I love Tao Dam that I had purchased months ago but it was gone in 5 minutes on me. That fragrance was fleeting So I returned it. I’ve been eye on the Chanel fragrance you picked up. Been wanting to try something different. My go to scents for winter is Coco Chanel Noir and Coco Chanel. I’m looking for a third Chanel to complete my Chanel fragrances collection. Also own JM velvet rose and Oud and Myrrh and Tonka. I want something I can grab and spritz year round like I did with Chanel Chance. I’m literally on my last drop now. Miss Butters is so adorable 🥰
Wow! I’m super excited. I was just asking for your fav perfume videos. I have some new discoveries I see. I’m mad for Portrait of a Lady...... mad for... also will try the Hypnotizing Fire, as a change to Metal Flower. I blew my perfume budget this quarter on Mancera’s Hindu Kush, Mad Madame and a backup for Noir to Noir. I love a good smell.
Love how you describe scents. This year I'm trying to learn more about fragrances cause the regular ones in the store just smell to generic for me. Still having a hard time on knowing what kind of notes work for me!
Fragrance intrigues me. I am especially curious about MEMO Paris Sicilian Leather. My current favorites are the Baccarat Rouge 540, Skyler Pink Canyons, and Le Labo Santal. Many of the Tom Ford are too strong for me, haven't loved them and I have a few. I tend to gravitate toward sweeter fragrances as they remind me of my teenage years. I'm going to buy Pulp and am deciding between Creed Aventus and Creed Virgin Island Water. I just love your vivid descriptions.
Delina 😍 I know she’s super popular among the UA-cam community, but I’m so glad that it doesn’t translate to my personal life (unlike BR 540 which I smell everywhere). I always feel so special and pretty wearing it 💕
Ah perfumes are my thing too ! I have a display case showcasing my collection! My recent favorite has been Byredo Tobacco Mandarin and my all time favorite … I have two … Versus (red bottle) that is discontinued … and from Chanel Les Exclusives … Cuir de Russie … it’s heaven!! Ans I totally get you on the tobacco scent!! i am a order smoker too and while I don’t miss it at all … like you Michele I miss that fresh package when you open it … so yummy!!
I have recently found a new favourite, Le Lobo Noir 29. I was out recently and chatting to someone who asked what I was wearing saying it smelled phenomenal, I couldn’t smell it myself anymore and it’s been a long time since that’s happened so needless to say I ordered a large bottle. 😁
Happy Friday😊 I am surprised my favorite Byredo Tabacco Mandarin didn’t make in your top 10. I stopped using TF Tabacco Vanille since started Tabacco Mandarin. So good!
My scent-sister!! Thank you for collaborating with me! This idea was genius! I MUST check out all the scents you love that I don’t already have! I know I’ll love them bc you do! Oh the perks of having another nose to smell for me 🤣 Happy Mishmas! Smooches 💋

Loved the “late summer drive along a coast in an antique sports car” description! Nice scene setting… you could be an author 🤗
Thank you very much for doing 25 days of mishmas! I just realized you are my advent calendar, I watches your videos daily and really enjoying leaning new products from you.

I love portrait of a lady that reminds me I need another bottle, 😍 ❤ great vlog Michele. Gill 🇬🇧 xoxo
Fellow Brit here, and totally agree. POAL is my signature scent..but closely followed by Guerlains Santal Royal ..and the Oud in the same line..
Portrait of a Lady I love, my husband bought it for me in the Madison Avenue store, I love it, followed by Coromandel by Chanel.
I love how you put colors with scents! You just made it even more interesting! Thank you Michelle!!
I got a sample of Tom Ford Tobacco Vanilla and thought I wouldn’t like it but tried it. My husband thinks it is the best. He loves it on me. So much surprise about this. I always wear light scents and mostly floral.

black forest cake with cherries on top! what an interesting taste lol
I LOVE Portrait of a Lady! I discovered it years ago and I’m never without it.
Snap..😂🇬🇧
Gateau is cake in french, so it's Black Forest Cake.😊
I can imagine how exhausting it is to do a video Everyday, come up with ideas, film it, edit them, and get them put out. It's a lot!
And just know we really appreciate it! You've been doing a fantastic job!❤❤
Sometimes before I go to bed, I do one little spritz of Tom Fords Tobacco Vanilla… it’s so soothing to me. I feel like it “tucks me in bed” I love it!
Great explanations of the scents. Love the color associations. The Jo Malone is wonderful, and Tobacco Vanille is so good! That Chanel range is so nice as well. I have the Riviera and it’s what I grab when I can’t decide what to wear. 🎄😊
Thank you for sharing this topic! I just got TF Tobacco Vanille and Lost Cherry a s they are amazing. I haven’t worn perfume in at least 10+ years!
I think you would love the men's version of Aventus. It is honestly my favorite scent ever. I buy it for my husband but sometimes I put a little on my wrist just so I can have it with me all day!
Ooh, I like this topic. My favourites/most worn include: Creed Virgin Island Water, Kilian Angels’ Share, L’Artisan Premier Figuier, Zoologist Bee, Parfums de Marly Delina, Armani Rose Alexandrie, Replica Lipstick On (discontinued 😬), Roja 51 essence, Byredo Gypsy Water and Armani Figuier Eden.
Oh Zoologist Bee is *incredible*. The whole Zoologist line is great but Bee is... magnificent!! 🐝🐝💛
Such a good list!!! I also love replica lipstick on- I’m so glad I got my hands on a bottle right before it was discontinued
I have been wearing Nomad by Chloe which is perfect for fall/winter. I also love Eau du Soir by Sisley and Merveilles by Hermes.
Fredric Malle carnal flower is amazing as well as POAL
Your description of each fragrance was perfection and your comparison to an experience of the seasons and surroundings was amazing. The fact that you could smell one fragrance after another without having to smell coffee beans was interesting.
I've never thought of colors when I whiff perfume but I want Portrait of a Lady. BTW. It was a great book
3 out of 10 I have , amazing.🌹🌹🌹
And I miss New York as much as you do.
I love your description of Portrait of a Lady!
I am so glad I am not the only dog mommy that has a advent calendar for the pup.
This is such a fun video. I appreciate how you associate color with scent. I just received Delina in the mail. It’s just a small one but I’m in love!
I got the Aventus for him for my husband a couple years ago and it is both our favorite for him. SO good. It’s relatively unisex in my opinion but leans masculine.
Love your list 😍
Michele I absolutely LOVED the flirty eye look you did when describing the 'Harmonising Fire' perfume as a 3rd date fragrance, classic!
I purchased and fell in love with both Hypnotizing Fire and Baccarat Rouge 540 because of your videos! So thankful for your content.
I am SO GLAD you did this because I just joined Scentbird to start trying out some of these new fragrances you've been peaking my interest with. Just added the harmonist for next month😈 my first month I got the Rag&Bone Oddity fragrance and I actually think you'd like it. It's SO different from anything I've smelled as a fragrance and it's unisex. The notes are black pepper, licorice, leather, vetiver and vanilla bean. HEAVY on the black pepper and definitely get a licorice scent which isn't my favorite but it grew on me. Definitely a one and done kind of fragrance.
I missed this video somehow. I looove your fragrance descriptions, Michele! Vivid!💖💖💖
Yay!! Will you be doing a perfume collection tour? 👀 I’ve been dying for an updated one ever since your last one from spring 😭
I love Hombre Leather! My sister says I smell like an old man's wallet but I love it.

Can’t say how much your description of scents in colour visualization is appreciated! 👏💛
Love your hair pulled back!! The gray is so perfectly sprinkled in it almost looks strategically placed professional.
One of my first subscriptions I loved here on UA-cam was the channel: Katie Puckrik Smells.
I think she still has some content up even though it's over a decade old. She is very interesting, funny and in depth.

Ah Michele, I'm a long-time fragrance enthusiast and I have to tell you, it's been so fun watching you get into fragrance and sharing your experiences with us! I love your fragrance videos! I had to think really hard .... but right now, I think these would be my top shelf: Kilian Amber Oud (sadly discontinued), Guerlain Santal Royal, YSL Cuir, Eris Mx, Memo Quartier Latin, Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan, Tauer Perfumes Phi: Une Rose de Khandehar, L'Occitane Labdanum (also sadly discontinued), Hermes Osmanthe Yunnan, and Fort & Manle Mr. Bojnokopff's Purple Hat. My hubs and I share TF Tobacco Vanille and Kilian Black Phantom (and Fort & Manle Forty Thieves and Arquiste Nanban, which we layered for our elopement). Based on your list, I think you would like Tauer Phi! It is really well blended with a lot going on, but it has blond tobacco and rose in the mix. I also think you might like like trying Santal Royal (rose oud) and YSL Cuir (suede). I haven't liked much from Harmonist that I've tried but I'm going to find a sample of Hypnotizing Fire because it sounds amazing, and maybe I'll give PoaL a go again. Happy Mishmas! 😁
Wow your skin/base in the fragrance portion of the video was 🔥🔥🔥

I normally only like light citrusy fragrances but I’ve fallen in love with Tom Ford black orchid. It’s my new favorite wintertime perfume.
Michele, you look so pretty in your gray sweater and subtle lip color. I love you in reds, too, but somehow in this video you look extra pretty.
Have you ever looked into smell-color synesthesia? I love hearing your descriptions of scents! What a lovely video, as always. It was a genuine treat to watch. Thank you for taking the time to share your favorites with us.
thank you so much for your favorites, yesterday I tried and then bought Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Universalis - amazing smell! thank you
I am NOT a big scent person but you, Michele, describing these scents by color? Swooooooon.
I love Tobacco Vanille and Portrait of a Lady also.

Thanks for watching Sara!
Michelle, I’d youre so inclined, I’d love to hear what you’d recommend as an everyday / office appropriate scent. Thank you.
I love your color descriptions, but even more the "first date", "third date" [checking that one out!], and "one night stand" imagery. I promise to build up my "dating fragrances" wardrobe in 2022.
Girl I loooooove your scent choice. Portrait of a lady is my next purchase such a splurge. I just got the Tom Ford ombre leather for my hubby and I sneak a spritz here and there it’s wonderful
After covid and not being to smell anytjing properly for the last 5 months, it is pleasurable in itself to hear the descriptions of the scents ) i miss feeling thise scents ♡
OMG Michele...your funny bone was acting up today. You had me laughing out loud with some of your commentary. I too am expanding my perfume collection...and noted some down for reference. Super entertaining video 🤣
I’m going to try Tom Ford Tabacco Vanilla.
Hi Michele, last month I bought TF Ombre Leather but mine has a white label. I love love love that scent😍 and thank you for enduring making videos for us every day , we really appriciate💐💐💐❤️🎄🎄🎄🎄
It reminisce me of warm and cozy.
I enjoy your take on niche frags, which is slightly different from the frags only videos, especially since you give a synaesthetic description with colors, which is quite useful. I have bacarat rouge, delina and now am eying aventus for her as a possible new summer frag.
Love the color associations
You’re so good describing fragrances, I can almost smell them lol ! You have a good nose to pick up all the notes 😃
Great Collab. Thank you for doing this. I’ve been trying to update my collection and try new fragrances. I saved both videos so when I go into Nordstrom’s or Sephora I can test them. Thanks again
I love ❤️ the way you describe fragrance as colors. I randomly received a sample of Tom Ford’s Tobacco Vanille. Oh my gosh, fell head over heels for it immediately. I’m starting to realize that I’m drawn to scents, perfumes and candles, that have the tobacco note. I also enjoy the warmth that honey can bring to a scent and want to explore that more.
I grew up in the Black Forest region. The Black Forest Cherry Cake is a local specialty - loved and eaten all over Germany, most often accompanied by a cup of coffee 😊 One of my favorite scents is Black Orchid by Tom Ford. His fragrances are so complex, he's a genius.
Hi 🤓, thank you so much for giving us an idea about the prices 😀👍👍👍👍👍
Yes! Vlog and perfumes, perfect! Will take notes 🤓
What blush are you wearing today? I need to buy it 😍
I am loving Mishmas! This is my first year and have enjoyed all of the videos/content. i am also really liking your very neutral, natural makeup look in this video. The lipstick/gloss is perfect!
So happy you did this! JM Wood Sage and Sea Salt, Red Roses, Tonka and Myrrh, Mollinard Vanille, and TF Tobacco Vanille are amongst my all time favorite fragrances. I’ve been curious of more bright citrus scents so this definitely has given me some ideas! 💚
I saw the Diptyque advent calendar and thought of you. I love Tao Dam that I had purchased months ago but it was gone in 5 minutes on me. That fragrance was fleeting So I returned it. I’ve been eye on the Chanel fragrance you picked up. Been wanting to try something different. My go to scents for winter is Coco Chanel Noir and Coco Chanel. I’m looking for a third Chanel to complete my Chanel fragrances collection. Also own JM velvet rose and Oud and Myrrh and Tonka. I want something I can grab and spritz year round like I did with Chanel Chance. I’m literally on my last drop now. Miss Butters is so adorable 🥰
Im in love with tom ford ombre leather and tuscan leather…omg!!!! I just can’t
Wow! I’m super excited. I was just asking for your fav perfume videos. I have some new discoveries I see. I’m mad for Portrait of a Lady...... mad for... also will try the Hypnotizing Fire, as a change to Metal Flower. I blew my perfume budget this quarter on Mancera’s Hindu Kush, Mad Madame and a backup for Noir to Noir. I love a good smell.
Love how you describe scents. This year I'm trying to learn more about fragrances cause the regular ones in the store just smell to generic for me. Still having a hard time on knowing what kind of notes work for me!
I love Jo Malone’s grapefruit.
Great collection, I love Portrait of a Lady! 🌷
I love JM Grapefruit as well, I use it as my workout fragrance. It just is so uplifting 😊
Fragrance intrigues me. I am especially curious about MEMO Paris Sicilian Leather. My current favorites are the Baccarat Rouge 540, Skyler Pink Canyons, and Le Labo Santal. Many of the Tom Ford are too strong for me, haven't loved them and I have a few. I tend to gravitate toward sweeter fragrances as they remind me of my teenage years. I'm going to buy Pulp and am deciding between Creed Aventus and Creed Virgin Island Water. I just love your vivid descriptions.
Also lil fleur by byredo is amazing must try
Great mishmas video Michele. I'm obsessed with Jo Malone Grapefruit ❤
Yay!! I bought myself the Grande Selection from Byredo and I have a lot of spritzing to do 🤣🤣🤣. I love to hear what you have to say about perfumes!
Love this!! I believe this may be one of my favorite mishmas days 😍
Delina 😍 I know she’s super popular among the UA-cam community, but I’m so glad that it doesn’t translate to my personal life (unlike BR 540 which I smell everywhere). I always feel so special and pretty wearing it 💕
Ah perfumes are my thing too ! I have a display case showcasing my collection! My recent favorite has been Byredo Tobacco Mandarin and my all time favorite … I have two … Versus (red bottle) that is discontinued … and from Chanel Les Exclusives … Cuir de Russie … it’s heaven!! Ans I totally get you on the tobacco scent!! i am a order smoker too and while I don’t miss it at all … like you Michele I miss that fresh package when you open it … so yummy!!
I want to try so many now.
I have recently found a new favourite, Le Lobo Noir 29. I was out recently and chatting to someone who asked what I was wearing saying it smelled phenomenal, I couldn’t smell it myself anymore and it’s been a long time since that’s happened so needless to say I ordered a large bottle. 😁
Have you ever tried jo Malone English pear?
Happy Friday😊
I am surprised my favorite Byredo Tabacco Mandarin didn’t make in your top 10. I stopped using TF Tabacco Vanille since started Tabacco Mandarin. So good!
